Written for legacy sims, not the html5 ones. These are the clicker questions that I use in my PhET activities. I update this activity as I add questions. This year, I put them in the order that I use them and included a scope and sequence for my course. I also linked the slides to the activities.

Can students see the math formulas underlying the simulations? Where?
Thank you,
HMHerman Mann26.05.11

We use open source platforms, so the underlying math can be found in the code. Follow the links through the FAQ page: http://phet.colorado.edu/en/faqs Sometimes, models are used to enable the science to show basic ideas and yet run on personal computers. If you look at the Teachers Guide which is available on individual sim pages (not all sims have teacher guides yet), you will find information about the model. Feel free to email phethelp@colorado.edu for more information about specific sims if you like. Trish28.05.11

Does clicker mean qwizdom or some other type of clicker?Russ Sivey12.07.12

Clicker is just an expression for "student response systems", there are many types including ones that use personal internet devices and cell phones. For information from Colorado University Boulder about using clickers - check out http://STEMclickers.colorado.eduTrish14.07.12

kriekj@unisa.ac.za: I think it is very useful in the classroom. Come from SA and are using it in the professional development of teachers. Thank you so muchTrish21.07.12
